EDINBURG — Frida Kahlo was everywhere the eyes could see here at the city hall courtyard over the weekend. Her likeness was on canvas, her spirit was in the air, her legacy was painted on the faces of attendees at the city’s festival dedicated in her name, and thanks to Houston artist Anat Ronen, she was also on the very ground you walked on.
